Well it was bound to happen, after two years of trouble free 914 fun I am am having problems shifting.
Problems: 1) Having trouble with reverse, sometime grinds when going into. 2) No problem with first while rollling (at a stop sign and such) but to stop and try to put into first it grinds a little. New problem today.... 3) Very hard to get into and out of 4th & 5th I hope it just needs the shifter adjusted, maybe new bushings (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) I won't have time to look at it more until next week. Any other obvious things to check? |

check the set screw at the shifter coupler right behind the firewall (assuming you have a side-shifter) ... i had the screw back out on me slowly which made it progressively harder to find the gears ... as for the first not going in (or grinding) when not moving, that sounds like the slider is shot. not cheap ...
